Recently, microscopic calculations based on covariant EDF successfully described alpha decay for several nuclei of the nuclear chart, such as \(^{104}\) Xe, \(^{108}\) Te, \(^{212}\) Po or \(^{224}\) Ra [1]}, [2]}. In this approach, a multidimensional potential energy surface is calculated considering quadrupole, octupole, and hexadecapole degrees of freedom, in order to compute the least action principle, leading to the formation and emission of the alpha-particle in these nuclei. This approach is similar to the one which has been successfully used for fission for several years (see [3]} and refs. therein). Therefore, the study of both the density and the NLF during the process of alpha radioactivity could lend relevant information on their respective role with respect to alpha-particle formation and localization.
